Faropenem Sodium 200mg: Comprehensive Guide on FAROPINOM 200

Introduction

FAROPINOM 200 contains Faropenem Sodium 200 mg, a broad-spectrum beta-lactam antibiotic belonging to the penem group. Recognized for its high stability against beta-lactamase enzymes and excellent oral bioavailability, faropenem sodium tablets 200 mg are widely used to treat various bacterial infections. The formulation is based on Faropenem Sodium Tablets JP 200 mg, ensuring compliance with international pharmacopoeial quality.

Faropenem Sodium Tablets Uses

Faropenem Sodium 200 mg is prescribed to treat a variety of infections caused by gram-positive, gram-negative, and anaerobic bacteria. Common clinical indications include:

• Respiratory Tract Infections (e.g., bronchitis, pneumonia)

• Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs)

• Skin and Soft Tissue Infections

• Gastrointestinal Infections

• Gynaecological Infections

• Ear, Nose, and Throat (ENT) Infections

• Dental Infections

FAROPINOM 200 is especially useful in treating infections caused by drug-resistant bacteria and is often preferred when other antibiotics have failed.

Mechanism of Action of Faropenem Sodium 200 mg

Faropenem works by:

• Inhibiting the synthesis of bacterial cell walls

• Binding to penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs)

• Exhibiting bactericidal activity (kills bacteria rather than just inhibiting their growth)

This mode of action ensures rapid and effective control of infections, especially those caused by beta-lactamase-producing bacteria. Faropenem sodium tablets JP 200 mg are designed for high efficacy and reduced resistance risk.
